Question
1. By drawing, construct a model of glycerol and three short fatty acids: a four-carbon saturated fatty acid, a four-carbon unsaturated fatty acid, and a five-carbon saturated fatty acid.
- Perform three dehydration synthesis reactions to produce triglyceride.
- Research the structure of one steroid of your choosing, and build the steroid.
- Which
functional groups are involved in the dehydration synthesis reactions in Step 2? What are the waste products in this reaction? - What are the subunits of a triglyceride?
- What is the C:H:O ratio for fatty acid chains disregarding the carboxyl?
